Alero was sorta the coupe version, and it was also available with a 5-speed transmission (but only with the four-banger). I’d drive the shit out of one if someone offered to give me one for free.

If it wasn’t for the fact that I was a thin kid in high school, the seats in my ‘92 Prelude would have been hell. They were definitely not designed with heavier-set folks in mind. If I recall though, the seats were actually designed by Recaro but were never labeled as such.

My bad, I wasn’t trying to be “that guy,” but like you, I also thought this movie’s release date passed. I must have peripherally seen something about the SXSW premiere on the interwebs and thought it already had its run in theaters.

It was released at SXSW in March, so you did technically miss the “premiere.”

Back in my basic journalism class our Prof. always said reporting on someone else’s news is not news writing. But I can understand in this case; it’s an automotive blog, and they don’t have the time or resources to do an entire from-scratch story. I mean, maybe try to call the Ben guy up and get a couple soundbites or…

But it just seems a little contradictory because the dude clearly says this is a “vote of confidence” in Trump’s direction. I certainly didn’t pull that out of thin air or have to read between any lines or anything. Also, don’t get me confused with someone trying to falsely chalk this up as a victory for Trump. I’m…

Breaking News: Rich businessman gaffs on social media platform developed for narcissistic 20-somethings, news cycle explodes

Seems like Trump may have had some inkling of influence?

Even though Trump did not influence the decision, it’s a lose-lose for him anyway. One side will say, as is the case now, Ford’s decision had nothing to do with Trump. And if Ford had decided to move to Mexico, those same people would tout Trump failed to keep jobs in the U.S.

Any music that fans tell you “is way better on acid” should just not exist. Yeah, there’s the whole “to each their own” saying, but I still have the right to say this is shitty music. Fans can listen to it all they want, just don’t try to convince me to like it.

I’m getting more out of the comments than the article honestly.

Since I study mass communication and I just took media law, intellectual property law was something I found really interesting. A recent case of infringement is that of Gillette suing Dollar Shave Club for supposedly ripping off their process of coating razor blades with a layer of carbon and chromium. Just like a lot…

I’m totally agreeing with you. I was just stating the obvious (at least to those of us with common sense) that the family is out for blood in the form of cash money and they weren’t gonna get it from the guy who hit them. Instead, they set their sights on the big fish instead. The only reason for Apple to shell any…

Lots of companies patent shit they never intend to manufacturer in order to keep others from ever using it. It’s a dick move but its commonplace.

This is definitely a case where, while I can understand the family wanting some sort of restitution, the buck of responsibility is being leveraged on Apple instead of the dumb person for using Facetime while fucking driving. My gut is telling me they want a huge payout, and it definitely wasn’t gonna come from the…

Since you’re Baskin in the spotlight, don’t let me Robbins your glory.

Or—just stay with me here on this one, it’s gonna be a wild ride—they just don’t care. They’re rich, middle-aged, out-of-touch Englishmen. I’d suspect that’s really what Hammond’s sense of humor consists of, and it was just another remark he made. It was no more significant than any other.

I thought the news cycle had dropped this already? Hmm, I guess not.

My e36 I had for nearly 8 years had ~123k when I bought it and when it got totaled it only had about 177k. I drove that thing every day but it was basically to commute less than 10 miles a day. The most I ever put on it in one stretch was driving from Phoenix, AZ all the way to Raleigh, NC. At that time it had about…

Slow news day I assume. But here at Jalop, anything vaguely car related could end up on the main page.
